Gday...
Dont know what the problem is.... I dont need to be reminded to read your excellent Caravaning News ... I just have your publication saved as a Favorite ... and just like now, I go there on a regular basis and catch up with what you have to offer.
I would suggest your concerns about being so-called banned are a little unfounded, those that know and want to know will always find you easily.
Cheers
John

Does this follow something we should know about? I'm not sure what this means here. Does anyone else?

Yes CG. My understanding is Cindy banned a link to Caravanning News a little while back and there has been some comments on it.

This topic has already been covered and I fail to see why it should be reopened in a new thread. Cindy has a view that this forum should not be used as a vehicle for free advertising and I (and I think many others too) concur with this policy.

Thanks guys. I think I have been pretty clear about this. I honestly don’t think it is appropriate for people to join the forum with the sole purpose of posting links to other websites/newsletters/services/products. etc .I think everyone is more than capable of finding what they want on the internet on their own, and I would prefer to keep this forum as a place where people can discuss the grey nomad lifestyle and travelling-related issues … and a have a bit of fun along the wayl I am going to close this thread off now as I don’t think I can be any more straightforward about our policy . If anyone has any questions or comments about our policy on this issue or any other topic, please feel free to PM me. Thanks everybody.
